CAUSATION

Natalia: Some causes or reasons that make Gangs be like this are:

1. poverty
2. social and Familiar violence
3. lack of activity
4. moral abandon
5. family disintegration
6. social exclusion

Cristina: People said that most of the people that causes why are gangs like this are because their violent relationships with their friends and their family. Experts make sure that most of the gang’s members in Cali have physiological problems, this mean that gang members consume alcohol and drugs. This problem also makes many people in Cali join gangs and this and do bad actions which have a negative effect in Cali.

PERSPECTIVE
Natalia: Today we have invited some people to the CNFN news so they tell us a little bit about Gangs in Cali and their own P.O.V so today we are going to talk with an Ex gang member from the G6 gang.

Nicolas: Good afternoon and than you for this invitation. What I think about gangs now that am not in one is that now I realized that being in a gang was not as bad as people think it is, having in count that I was in a good gang this mean that we were more a group of friends but we were not always fighting and doing illegal things we would jut fight when they provoque us but not always. We didn’t go to school, and with the money we recollected we spend it mostly buying drugs and alcohol, I was in a gang since I was 8 years old till 15, I went out because they killed a friend. Now my only dram is to be a police.


Cecilia Vivas (mum of an ex ganger): I think that gangs in Agua Blanca are really difficult to control that the teenagers don’t go to one because they are always looking for them and if they don’t belong to one they would have a lot of precision on them. Normally the people between 11 to 16 years are the most dangerous ones and the ones that most committed illegal things and normally the ones who have the biggest power in the gangs. When they arrived to 18 years old they feel the necessity to go out of the gang but this Is not because they want to is more because they need to because if not went they do something bad which is like a daily act from them the police would look for them, and take them to jail its very few cases when they go out of the gang before. Actually is not normal that in Aguablanca all the teenagers belong to a gang so we also have to think how have their child being, well most of the time this kids have suffered a lot and they have lots of bad memories from their past.

Federico: When I grow up I want to be in a gang because I want to have cool friends, I always see my brother and his friends and they are amazing they always do cool things. I also want to be a gang member because I want to revenched one gang member which I know who is it because he filled my brother and I want to make him suffered as he make me suffered.

Natalia: The society in general thinks that being part of a gang is really bad because they are 2 different reasons for having a bad face in Cali one is that they do bad actions and they commit illegal things. But also because sometimes they used their power to make others feel bad and order others do bad things, and this is day by day affecting Cali.

RESPONSABILITIES
Cristina: We have all being talking and we have arrived into a conclusion of:

Natalia: We need to do something and contribute for ending with this problem we all as a community have so let’s give something for the end of gangs in Cali.

Nicolas: Let’s look as gang members as equal people, let’s help them realized, let’s all get together and give a little piece of something we can give, let’s give them a bit of our love to kids and people who really need it.

Federico: This is all for today we would see you tomorrow in CNFN news thanks.

CHANGE



Kid playing (Federico)
When they are little they used to play and have fun, however most of this people that later on become gang members don’t have a dad or in some cases they don’t have parents, when they have both parents the most common thing is that they treat them bad or may be the kid wants more then what his parents can give him and they started since very little to have madness with their parents. And in some other cases they could never play because since they are little they have to assume responsibilities they shouldn’t have to.


Child labor (Nicolas)
When they are kids they normally need to help sustain the family and give money to the family so they can even eat something each day, so they need to go and work and assume responsibilities for helping the family, also there is another way which it is when they are played because of assuming responsibilities someone bad bigger than 18 years for they don’t go to jail they pay the little kids which needs money to say that he was the one that makes it and this way the bad people pay the kid and the older than 18 don’t go to jail. So this is normally the past of most of the gang members in Cali.



Looking for friend (Federico)
When they are in the ages between 10-16 is when they normally look for friends and try to make things to have power in the neighborhood, school and sport bar gangs, for this the easiest way is to have friends that are in gangs and friends how have power which unfortunately are the bad teenager which don’t go to school and most of their acts are illegal or are bad, also because sometimes they have bigger brothers, sisters or cousins and they look for them for having power and friends, also they started since they are little to do things that big people do because they don’t have rules or because they have to be powerful.

Drawing graffiti (Nicolas)
When they enter to a group of friends and they are normally doing things they shouldn’t do because its not their people of that age should do, they start to have to do what the leader or sub leader of a gang asked for, and what all of the gang do, looking for power or for reconcilement in different areas and also that the other gang are shied of them, the drown graffiti’s for the city to know them.

Being forced (Federico)
When little and innocent people needs to obligatory assume consequences sine little that they haven’t when know how they are, they are forced in there hoses to get money and assume responsibilities, they have so much obligations that they end doing illegal things and getting in a gang specially here in Cali and when they are in a gang they just started realizing that there they have also to assume orders from the leader, and also to make themselves responsible for acts that are made from bigger people than 18 for they don’t go to jail.

Assuming consequences (Nicolas)
Almost all of this people are looked by the police and by others gangs so when they find them the are
threatened to things they don’t understand or that what they seemed to look like when they are found by the police or by other gangs and they have to comfort them which is a very difficult thing to do for people that are used to make others assume their responsibilities of their acts and they illegal things they do.


Terrible ending (Federico)
This is how lots of members of gangs end, killing themselves because they arrived to one point that they don’t know anything they don’t even know who they are because they have past through so much difficult things in their lives that this is the only solution thy find after having a very short but sad and hard life, and the others some of them could go out or the others die in fights, in jail, or unfortunately killed by someone else or even the police.
